Exploring historic colleges and charming quadrangles

Your day tour begins at London where a comfortable, AC coach will be waiting for you. Hop aboard and start your journey to the idyllic English countryside. Your first stop is the university town of Oxford. Wander through the town's ancient colleges and quaint quadrangles with your expert guide who'll take you inside the medieval Divinity School, the university's oldest classroom. Later, enjoy some free time to explore at your leisure before the tour ventures ahead.

Cotswolds exploration and pub lunch delights

Next, the Cotswolds, a region characterized by gentle, rolling hills and limestone villages, invites your exploration. Narrow country lanes and hidden green valleys reveal the region's rich wool trade history. Immerse yourself in the idyllic beauty of Burford, with its ancient stone houses and peaceful churchyard. Savor a hearty pub lunch at the Lamb Inn, featuring dishes of roast chicken and mashed potatoes along with a drink. Head on to Bibury, renowned for Arlington Row, a picturesque row of weaver's cottages, and be captivated by the views of Coln Valley. The market square of Stow-on-the-Wold, filled with antique shops and traditional pubs, provides a fitting end to the day.
